SO the party conference season has come to an end with the calamitous Conservative leader’s speech. Theresa May’s monotonous monologue will be remembered as a metaphor for the state of the Tory Party and the brutal neoliberal ideology to which it continues to cling.
By contrast, Labour’s conference was a triumph. Jeremy Corbyn’s standing was substantially enhanced after he used his speech to bring a highly successful week to a positive conclusion by setting out a bold, hopeful and progressive vision for Britain.
There is a beautiful line in the seminal 1995 film The Shawshank Redemption when Andy Dufresne (Tim Robins) tells fellow inmate Ellis Boyd “Red” Redding (Morgan Freeman) that “hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.”
